TIPS FOR COMBINATION COOKING

This section gives you instructions to operate each combination cooking function. Please read these instructions carefully. Sometimes combination microwave-convection cooking is suggested to get the best cooking results since it shortens the cooking time for foods that normally need a long time to cook. This cooking process also leaves meats juicy on the inside and crispy on the outside. In combination cooking, the convection heat and microwave energy alternate automatically. Your oven has three preprogrammed settings that make it easy to use combination cooking.

HELPFUL HINTS FOR COMBINATION COOKING

1.Meats may be roasted directly on the metal rack or in a shallow roasting pan placed on the rack. When using the metal rack, please check your cooking guide for information on proper use.

2.Less tender cuts of beef can be roasted and tenderized using oven cooking bags.

3.When baking, check for doneness after cooking time is up. If not completely done, let stand in oven for a few minutes to complete cooking.

PRECAUTIONS

1.All cookware used for combination cooking must be BOTH microwave-safe and oven-safe.

2.During combination baking, some baking cookware may cause arcing when it comes in contact with the oven walls or metal accessory racks. Arcing is a

discharge of electricity that occurs when microwaves come in contact with metal.

--If arcing occurs, immediately stop the cooking cycle

and place a heat resistant dish between the pan and the metal rack.

--We recommend you use the metal tray applied with your oven. It has rubber feet that helps prevent arcing.

--If arcing occurs with other baking cookware, do not use them for combination cooking.
